Of the firms who experienced an external attack, 42% of global security decision makers stated it was a software vulnerability and 35% said it was through a web application.
SCA efforts need to accelerate and shift toward the development phase. Firms that implement SCA early in the SDLC ensure apps are secure from security and licensing vulnerabilities.
Auto-remediation features scale development teams and help reduce the time to fix. Firms must trust vendors to recommend a fix with no known security vulnerabilities.
When documenting application risk, it is important to adopt SCA and container tools to make sure teams are maintaining updated inventory of all third-party components.
Formal, funded programs to help developers identify and better understand secure coding practices and attack trends accelerates success.
Providing clear guidance to developers on when to accept remediation recommendations or when to seek additional support is key to managing open source.
